The Eagles have secured LB Shaquille Leonard and are eyeing another win over the Cowboys this season. The Eagles defeated the Cowboys 28-23 a month ago. The Cowboys had the game in their grip in the first half, but the Eagles spread their wings in the second and clawed their way through the Cowboys’ defense to secure a victory.

This time, the Eagles have one thing to worry about: the Cowboys’ home-winning record stands at an astounding 14 back-to-back wins at the AT&T Stadium. That’s precisely where Leonard’s role gets the utmost importance. The Eagles’ recent trouble with the defense came to the fore as they embarrassingly lost against the 49ers 42-19.

Can the Eagles break the Cowboys’ winning streak?

The Eagles seem ready to register their another win over the Cowboys. One roadblock is the Cowboys’ 14-game winning streak at AT&T Stadium. The Dallas Cowboys shed light on their exceptional record. This is the team’s longest winning streak at the stadium. The record is only eclipsed by the 18-game winning streak of the Cowboys at the Texas Stadium back in 1979-81.

Other than this, the Cowboys haven’t lost any game after the debacle against the Eagles and have maintained a spotless six-game winning record at Arlington by averaging 41 points per game. The Eagles need a phenomenal effort to take this off, and the table toppers have gotten their hands on a wild card.

Shaquille Leonard holds the key to fix up Eagles’ defensive struggles

The Eagles may have got their hand on a treasure, albeit after waiting for 13 weeks into the season. It was a preemptive purchase, as the Eagles’ current LBs, Zach Cunningham and Nick Morrow, didn’t turn up in the game against the 49ers. Morrow made it possible to get Brock Purdy at least 175 yards and two of his four TDs.

The Cowboys and the Eagles were on the hunt to take Leonard, but the free agent chose the Iggles over the Cowboys and secured a $1.08 million contract with them. He will be a happier man as he has joined hands with this year’s best-performing team after getting released by the Colts. Will his presence help the Eagles to break the Cowboys’ winning streak?

As the day doesn?t end with a nice movie, my week doesn?t end without the NFL game day. I never imagined that I would get hooked on the sport so much. I was a big-time MMA fan but the early retirement of Khabib took out the competition and has led me toward the NFL.
